Can anyone please think of an airport which meets the following criteria:
1. In the UK
2. Has a runway >1000m
3. Sells JetA1
4. Has a deal with circuits eg 3 landings and you get the rest for free.

Manston? They would appear to be in need of the business...

Leicester does a very good deal on circuits - Rwy length?

Halfpenny Green - £25 per circuit session for singles, £45 per session for twins up to 3 tonnes.

What aircraft type?
It will make a difference to the deal you get.
Also some won't allow turboprop base training

Longest runway is 940m and I believe no Jet A1

Leicester does have Jet A1, has just short of a 1000m useable and does welcome Turboprop operations.
We use it for base training on occasion.
They are also prepared to negotiate on the fees if uplifting fuel and as we uplift several tonnes we get a pleasant rate.
Not sure why you need 1000m in a turboprop or is it turbofan?
